Hi,

How do I go about adding modules to my XOOPS installation?

Upload the module folder to your rootdir/modules folder. Then go into XOOPS Administration --> Modules and find the module. Click on the install button and it should be there.

Ok the difficult thing in the beginning is to find out which folder exactly to upload to your modules folder. Sometimes modules come with some folder structures that contain folders above the main module folder itself and wont work like that. You can always identify the main module folder by looking for the file xoops_version.php that folder and its subfolders should be upload to the rootdir/modules folder.


However looking to the right side i see jdseymours avator (2114 posts? man get a life ) which reminds me that there are some tutorials to show what i am babbling about - lol.

Just follow this star ... ahh link:

and check the tutorials section for
- XOOPS tutorials
- Module deployment

Should be what you need.

Great, seems to work. What about modules I've installed that I no longer want to display/use?

I suggest you download Xoops For Dummies it a good starting point.
